"I have had the good fortune to wear a lot of hats in the legal profession and in government. Because of that, I think I have a unique perspective that my clients appreciate." - Greg Sloan

Background

As a litigator handling complex cases, a certified mediator, a former county magistrate, and former chief municipal judge, Greg Sloan has seen just about everything a lawyer might encounter. But one case stands out, according to Sloan: the time he helped an elderly woman recover her dog from animal control and received a blueberry pie as payment. It is, he says, his proudest accomplishment as a lawyer. The Charlotte, North Carolina native earned his political science and law degrees at the University of South Carolina.
